Notice Regarding PFIC Status It is possible that SBG (and certain subsidiaries of SBG) may be a “passive foreign investment company” (“PFIC”) under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, for its current fiscal year due to the composition of its assets and the nature of its income.

SBG is not responsible for any tax treatments or consequences thereof with respect to U.S. holders of SBG’s shares. (Appendix) Contents Establishment of a New Reportable Segment In November 2025, the Company acquired all equity interests in Ampere, a semiconductor design company, making it a wholly owned subsidiary. Following the acquisition, the Board of Directors reassessed the business units whose performance is reviewed regularly by the Board. As a result, during the three-month period ended December 31, 2025, the Company established AI Computing as a new reportable segment, combining Arm, previously included in the Arm segment, Graphcore Limited, previously included in Other, and Ampere and other semiconductor-related subsidiaries. Comparative segment information for the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year (the three- month period ended June 30, 2025) has also been reclassified accordingly. For an overview of the new segment, see “Overview” under “(d) AI Computing Segment” in “b. Results by Segment” in “(1) Overview of Results of Operations.” SoftBank Group Corp.

The following is an overview of the primary and noteworthy components of the condensed interim consolidated statement of profit or loss. A Net Sales Net sales increased in the SoftBank segment and the AI Computing segment. For details, see “(c) SoftBank Segment” and “(d) AI Computing Segment” under “b. Results by Segment.” B Gain on Investments at Investment Business of Holding Companies Investment gain at Investment Business of Holding Companies was ¥1,382,212 million, primarily attributable to a ¥1,332,931 million gain on shares of Intel Corporation (“Intel”). For details, see “(a) Investment Business of Holding Companies Segment” under “b. Results by Segment.” C Gain on Investments at SoftBank Vision Funds Investment gain at SoftBank Vision Funds totaled ¥460,061 million, comprising gains of ¥384,963 million at SVF1 and ¥123,489 million at SVF2, partially offset by losses of ¥45,892 million at LatAm and ¥2,499 million on other investments. At SVF1, the investment gain was primarily driven by a $2.2 billion (¥358,435 million) increase in the fair value of Bytedance Ltd. (“ByteDance”), reflecting its strong business performance. At SVF2, the investment gain was primarily driven by increases in the fair value of certain private portfolio companies, reflecting higher valuations in recent transactions, as well as higher share prices of certain public portfolio companies. Gains and losses recorded in the SoftBank Vision Funds segment related to investments in the Company’s subsidiaries and others, including PayPay Corporation (“PayPay”), are eliminated on consolidation and therefore not recognized in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. For details, see “(b) SoftBank Vision Funds Segment” under “b. Results by Segment.” Primarily as a result of B and C, the total gain on investments was ¥1,859,382 million. D Selling, General and Administrative Expenses Selling, general and administrative expenses increased ¥528,727 million year on year to ¥1,286,924 million. Expenses in the AI Computing segment increased ¥200,491 million, reflecting higher share-based compensation expenses resulting from increased headcount, particularly among Arm engineers, and the acquisition of Ampere. Share-based compensation expenses are included in research and development expenses and other selling, general and administrative expenses. Expenses at Energy Global, which is included in Other in the segment information, increased ¥183,601 million, mainly due to higher share-based compensation expenses accounted for as cash-settled, following an increase in Energy Global’s fair value. E Finance Cost Interest expenses at SBG *1 increased ¥135,531 million year on year to ¥265,803 million. The increase was primarily due to interest on $11.5 billion borrowed in December 2025 through the margin loan backed by Arm shares and on $20.0 billion drawn under bridge loans in April 2026, as well as a higher outstanding balance of corporate bonds. Higher funding rates also contributed to the increase in interest expenses. SoftBank Group Corp. Consolidated Financial Report For the Three-Month Period Ended June 30, 2026 6

F Foreign Exchange Loss A foreign exchange loss of ¥146,065 million (net) was recorded, reflecting (i) a net U.S. dollar liability position at SBG and its domestic financing subsidiaries, with U.S. dollar-denominated liabilities, including intercompany borrowings and foreign currency-denominated senior notes, exceeding U.S. dollar-denominated cash, cash equivalents, and loans receivable, and (ii) the yen’s depreciation against the U.S. dollar from the previous fiscal year-end to the first quarter-end. Separately, the weaker yen increased the yen value of the net assets of overseas subsidiaries and associates, including SoftBank Vision Funds, whose functional currencies are the U.S. dollar and other foreign currencies. This favorable effect was not included in foreign exchange gains and losses. Instead, it was recognized in equity as an increase of ¥421,324 million in exchange differences from the translation of foreign operations within accumulated other comprehensive income in the consolidated statement of financial position. G Derivative Loss (Excluding Gain or Loss on Investments) A derivative loss of ¥453,418 million was recorded due to an increase in the fair value of warrants granted by Energy Global as incentives under lessor lease arrangements related to data centers. The warrants are convertible into Energy Global’s ordinary equity interests. H Change in Third-Party Interests in SVF Third-party interests in SVF increased ¥176,641 million. This was primarily driven by a ¥165,076 million increase in third-party interests at SVF1 attributable to investors entitled to performance-based distributions, following the recording of an investment gain of ¥384,272 million at SVF1 (on an SVF1 stand-alone basis). Primarily as a result of A through H, income before income tax was ¥589,150 million, a decrease of ¥100,791 million year on year. I Income Taxes Income taxes totaled ¥70,163 million, primarily due to income taxes recorded at operating companies, including SoftBank Corp. and LY Corporation. Primarily as a result of A through I, net income attributable to owners of the parent was ¥347,330 million, a decrease of ¥74,489 million year on year. Note: 1. Interest expenses of SBG include interest expenses of its wholly owned financing subsidiaries. SoftBank Group Corp. Consolidated Financial Report For the Three-Month Period Ended June 30, 2026 7

♦ ¥1,382.2 billion investment gain, primarily driven by a ¥1,332.9 billion gain on Intel shares following an increase in its share price ♦ ¥1,051.6 billion segment income, after recording finance cost of ¥281.9 billion and foreign exchange loss of ¥147.9 billion (a) Investment Business of Holding Companies Segment OVERVIEW This segment is led by SBG, which conducts investment activities either directly or through its subsidiaries, as a strategic investment holding company. The segment comprises SBG, SoftBank Group Capital Limited, SoftBank Group Japan Corporation, SoftBank Group Overseas GK, SB Northstar (the asset management subsidiary), and certain other subsidiaries engaged in investment or financing activities. In this segment, gains and losses on investments comprise those arising from investments held directly or indirectly by SBG, but exclude investment gains and losses related to shares of subsidiaries, including dividends received from subsidiaries and impairment losses on such shares. This segment holds investments in portfolio companies, such as Intel and T-Mobile, most of which are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL). Investments classified as financial assets at FVTPL are measured at fair value every quarter, with changes in fair value recorded as gains and losses on investments in the consolidated statement of profit or loss. Investment in listed stocks, corporate bonds and other instruments by the asset management subsidiary SB Northstar uses surplus funds at SBG to purchase and sell listed stocks, corporate bonds and other instruments. During the first quarter, the asset management subsidiary recorded an investment gain of ¥56.4 billion, including interest income from bond investments. Since inception, cumulative investment loss has totaled ¥664.5 billion. *1 As of the first quarter-end, its investment balance totaled ¥1,392.1 billion, including ¥1,248.0 billion in corporate bonds. The corporate bond portfolio consists primarily of investment-grade bonds with short remaining maturities. SBG indirectly holds a 67% stake in SB Northstar, while SBG’s Representative Director, Corporate Officer, Chairman & CEO Masayoshi Son indirectly holds a 33% interest. The portion attributable to Masayoshi Son’s interest is deducted from the gains and losses on investments at SB Northstar as a non-controlling interest; therefore, 67% of SB Northstar’s gains and losses on investments is reflected in net income attributable to owners of the parent. In the event that, at the end of the fund life (12 years + 2-year extension), SB Northstar has any unfunded repayment obligations to SBG, Masayoshi Son will cover his pro rata share of any such unfunded obligations based on his relative ownership percentage in SB Northstar. Note: 1. The cumulative investment loss includes dividend income and interest received from bond investments, but excludes the impact of SB Northstar’s investments in three special purpose acquisition companies controlled by SB Investment Advisers (US) Inc.

The increase was primarily due to interest on $11.5 billion borrowed in December 2025 through the margin loan backed by Arm shares and on $20.0 billion drawn under bridge loans in April 2026, as well as a higher outstanding balance of corporate bonds. Higher funding rates also contributed to the increase in interest expenses. Note: 1. Interest expenses of SBG include interest expenses of its wholly owned financing subsidiaries.

For individual customers, reflecting the growing importance of the group’s ecosystem integrating loyalty points, payments, financial services, e- commerce and other offerings, the segment is working to expand customer referrals across services and the group’s ecosystem. It does so by maintaining telecommunications services as a stable earnings base while leveraging its telecommunications customer base and a broad range of customer touchpoints, including Yahoo! JAP AN, LINE and PayPay. Under the growth strategy “Activate AI for Society,” the segment has positioned the Enterprise business as a key pillar supporting this growth. Building on its telecommunications customer base, it is expanding the provision of advanced digital transformation (DX) solutions and cloud and AI services. It is also developing AI infrastructure, including AI computing platforms and AI data centers, and advancing the monetization of these assets. FINANCIAL RESULTS Net sales increased ¥156,152 million (9.4%) year on year to ¥1,813,896 million, reflecting revenue growth across all businesses. Segment income increased ¥13,998 million (5.0%) year on year to ¥292,538 million. The increase in segment income was mainly attributable to higher profit in the Financial and Enterprise businesses. In the Financial business, profit increased due to higher fee income resulting from growth in the payment transaction volume of PayPay and PayPay Card Corporation, as well as an increase in interest income driven by growth in finance receivables, including revolving credit balances, at PayPay Card Corporation. In the Enterprise business, profit increased due to higher cloud and AI revenue, particularly from AI computing platforms. The Consumer business, which is the core earnings contributor, recorded higher revenue but lower profit. In smartphone customer acquisition, the business shifted its focus toward long-term customer retention and profitability, resulting in a decline in the cumulative number of contracts. Meanwhile, the average revenue per user for telecommunications services increased due to factors including the broader adoption of new rate plans, and SoftBank Group Corp.

For more information on SoftBank Corp.’s financial results and business operations, please refer to its website at https://www.softbank.jp/en/corp/ir/. mobile service revenue, which represents a stable earnings base, continued to grow. Mobile device sales also increased due to a rise in the average selling price of mobile devices. However, profit decreased because higher expenses, including amortization of capitalized customer acquisition costs, more than offset the positive impact of the revenue increase. The Media & EC business recorded lower profit because a one-time gain had been recognized in the same period of the previous fiscal year in connection with the remeasurement of the previously held equity interest upon the consolidation of LINE Bank Taiwan Limited. Excluding the impact of this one-time gain, profit increased, driven by growth in account advertising services, including LINE Official Account for companies and stores, reflecting an increase in the number of paid accounts and growth in usage-based charges.

♦ Net sales increased 17.8% YoY in U.S. dollar terms (30.2% increase in yen terms), driven by higher revenue at Arm. ♦ Segment income deteriorated ¥168.4 billion YoY, primarily due to higher research and development expenses associated with the development of next-generation technologies to underpin future growth.

Depreciation and amortization expenses include amortization expenses of ¥15,273 million for the first quarter and ¥14,181 million for the same period of the previous fiscal year. These expenses are related to intangible assets recognized in the purchase price allocation at the time of the acquisition of Arm. OVERVIEW In this segment, semiconductor-related subsidiaries such as Arm, Ampere, and Graphcore Limited (“Graphcore”) are working together to enhance the Group’s semiconductor business toward the realization of Artificial Superintelligence (ASI). Arm delivers industry-leading compute platforms that combine exceptional performance with superior energy efficiency, with its technologies deployed across a broad spectrum of products, including smartphones, data-center servers, IoT devices and automotive systems. In March 2026, Arm announced Arm AGI CPU, its first Arm- designed silicon chip since its founding. Designed specifically as a data center CPU for general-purpose cloud and agentic AI workloads, this product marks a significant strategic shift for Arm, extending its compute platform from its established IP licensing and Compute Subsystem (CSS) offerings into the realm of proprietary silicon chips. This development is expected to further accelerate innovation across Arm’s entire ecosystem. Ampere specializes in designing high-performance, energy-efficient CPUs for AI-driven workloads, built on the Arm compute platform. Graphcore has a proven track record in the design and development of semiconductor chips specialized for AI. These semiconductor-related subsidiaries will continue to invest in R&D to build the future of AI computing, while advancing the development of new technologies, including new compute platforms delivered as semiconductor IP, chips, and related technologies, which will enable their customers to develop next-generation products. Since the fiscal year ended March 31, 2025, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company and Arm have entered into agreements related to technology licensing and design services (the “Agreements” in this section). Under the Agreements, the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary receives licenses for Arm’s semiconductor IP and design services for joint research and development aimed at creating future new technologies. In this segment, transactions between the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary and Arm are eliminated as intra-segment transactions. SoftBank Group Corp.

(Millions of U.S. dollars) Three months ended June 30 2025 2026 Change Change % Net sales (U.S. dollar-based) 927 1,092 165 17.8% For more information on Arm’s U.S. GAAP-based financial results and business operations, please refer to Arm’s website at https://investors.arm.com/. FINANCIAL RESULTS Net sales Net sales in this section are presented in U.S. dollars as the segment’s revenue is primarily denominated in U.S. dollars. Net sales increased $165 million (17.8%) year on year to $1,092 million, primarily driven by higher revenue at Arm. This was mainly attributable to an increase in Arm’s royalty revenue. Royalty revenue increased across all three business units: Cloud AI (data centers and networks), Edge AI (smartphones, PCs and IoT devices), and Physical AI (autonomous vehicles and robotics). In Cloud AI, the increase in royalty revenue was driven by growth in shipments of Arm-based server chips to major hyperscalers, as well as increased deployment of equipment incorporating Arm-based networking chips in data centers. In Edge AI, the positive impact of higher royalty rates per chip, reflecting increased adoption of CPUs based on Arm’s latest-generation Armv9 technology and CSS, more than offset the impact of lower sales of low-end smartphones resulting from higher memory prices. In Physical AI, increased adoption of Arm technology in chips for advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) contributed to higher revenue. Segment income Segment income deteriorated ¥168,430 million year on year, resulting in a segment loss of ¥200,841 million. This was primarily attributable to an increase in research and development expenses at Arm and Graphcore, mainly reflecting higher share-based compensation expenses for additional engineers hired to develop next-generation technologies that will support future growth. The high level of research and development expenses at Ampere, which became a subsidiary in November 2025, also contributed to the deterioration in segment income. Arm, Ampere and Graphcore use share-based compensation as a component of employee incentive compensation. Arm mainly grants restricted share units (RSUs), while Ampere and Graphcore grant phantom shares linked to Arm’s share price. TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT Arm and its licensees made the following technology-related announcements during the first quarter. For details on each technology development, please refer to the press releases published on the websites of the announcing companies. · In June 2026, NVIDIA Corporation announced the NVIDIA RTX Spark superchip based on Arm technology that will reinvent the Windows PC for the agentic AI era. These PCs will provide high AI processing performance, industry-leading power efficiency, NVIDIA’s full-stack AI and graphics technologies, and up to 128 GB of memory. Major PC manufacturers also announced plans to develop laptops powered by RTX Spark. SoftBank Group Corp. Consolidated Financial Report For the Three-Month Period Ended June 30, 2026 22

(2) Third-party interests in SVF a. Terms and conditions of contribution from/ distribution to SVF Investors Contributions by SVF Investors are classified as “Equity” and “Preferred Equity” depending on the terms and conditions of distribution. Preferred Equity is prioritized over Equity with regard to distribution and return of contribution. Performance-based distributions attributed to SVF Investors, consisting of the Company and Third-Party Investors, are calculated using the net proceeds from the investment performance, as applicable, of SVF1, SVF2, and LatAm.

Restrictions on rights of MgmtCo to receive distributions MgmtCo’s right to receive distributions from its investment is subject to certain restrictions. Distributions from SVF2 LLC to MgmtCo are fully restricted and are not paid until the sum of proceeds received by SVF2 LLC from exited investments plus the aggregate fair value of all of SVF2 LLC’s investments before exit (net of borrowings) exceeds 130% of the aggregate acquisition cost of all of SVF2 LLC’s investments. After the ratio exceeds 130%, restrictions on distributions to MgmtCo are released proportionately in increments of 10%, and when the ratio reaches 200%, all restrictions are released and MgmtCo is entitled to receive the full amount of the distribution. In the event that, upon the liquidation of SVF2 LLC, the amount of the distributions received by MgmtCo exceeds the amount that would have been distributed to MgmtCo if the ratio in effect at the time of liquidation was applied throughout the life of SVF2 LLC, then any such excess amounts will be subject to clawback from MgmtCo. 2.

MgmtCo is entitled to make full or partial payment of its Equity Acquisition Amount at any point in time, at its discretion, from the date it became an investor in SVF2 LLC to the end of the company life of SVF2 LLC. MgmtCo is required to pay a premium of 3% per annum on the unpaid Equity Acquisition Amount until the unpaid amount is paid in full. “The premium received on SVF2 LLC’s receivables” refers to the amount of such premium accrued in the current period. MgmtCo is also entitled to make full or partial payment of the premium at any point in time, at its discretion, on the same terms and conditions as Equity Acquisition Amount. Any distributable amount from SVF2 LLC to MgmtCo is offset against the receivables at the time of the distribution notice and no distribution payments to MgmtCo are made until the SVF2 LLC’s receivables are paid in full. 4. Collateral and other credit protection for receivables In order to secure the receivables of SVF2 LLC related to Equity Acquisition Amount and the premium thereon, all of the Equity interests in SVF2 LLC held by MgmtCo are pledged as collateral. In the event that MgmtCo pays into the receivables or offsets such receivables with distributions due to it from SVF2 LLC, the collateral is released to the extent that the cumulative amounts of payments and offsets exceed the balance of the receivables after deduction of such cumulative amounts. Masayoshi Son also provides a personal guarantee to the receivables up to the balance of the receivables.

If there is a shortfall in the amount of return of Preferred Equity contributions and the amount of fixed distributions to be received by the Preferred Equity holders at the time of the final profit distribution by SLA LLC, then MgmtCo is obligated to pay the shortfall proportional to Equity interests’ ratio up to the total amount of return of Equity contributions and the distributions received by MgmtCo. 3. Balance at period end of receivables from MgmtCo for receipt of capital contribution and related adjustments Balance at period end is the balance of SLA LLC’s receivables which consists of the balance related to receipt of capital contribution, related adjustments, and premiums received. The amount of the transaction for “Receipt of capital contribution in SLA LLC and related adjustments” at the inception of the program is MgmtCo’s Equity Acquisition Amount in SLA LLC, which consists of the amount calculated based on MgmtCo’s Equity interests of 17.25% in LatAm’s initial acquisition costs of the portfolio companies held by LatAm and related adjustments calculated based on 17.25% interest in the increase in the portfolio companies’ fair value from the initial acquisition costs at LatAm to June 30, 2021, and the adjustment equivalent to interests for the period from the Company’s contribution to LatAm until June 30, 2021. MgmtCo is entitled to make full or partial payment of its Equity Acquisition Amount at any point in time, at its discretion, SoftBank Group Corp.

from the date it became an investor in SLA LLC to the end of the company life of SLA LLC. MgmtCo is required to pay a premium of 3% per annum on the unpaid Equity Acquisition Amount until the unpaid amount is paid in full. “The premium received on SLA LLC’s receivables” refers to the amount of such premium accrued in the current period. MgmtCo is also entitled to make full or partial payment of the premium at any point in time, at its discretion, on the same terms and conditions as Equity Acquisition Amount. Any distributable amounts from SLA LLC to MgmtCo are offset against the receivables at the time of the distribution notice and no distribution payments to MgmtCo are made until the SLA LLC’s receivables are paid in full. 4. Collateral and other credit protection for receivables In order to secure the receivables of SLA LLC related to Equity Acquisition Amount and the premium thereon, all of the Equity interests in SLA LLC held by MgmtCo are pledged as collateral. In the event that MgmtCo pays into the receivables or offsets such receivables with distributions due to it from SLA LLC, the collateral is released to the extent that the cumulative amounts of payments and offsets exceed the balance of the receivables after deduction of such cumulative amounts. Masayoshi Son also provides a personal guarantee to the receivables up to the balance of the receivables. In addition, as of June 30, 2026, 8,674,000 shares of SoftBank Group Corp. are deposited in SLA LLC by Masayoshi Son. The deposited shares of SoftBank Group Corp. will be released only when the entire amount of receivables is settled. SLA LLC may acquire the deposited SoftBank Group Corp. shares without consideration where there are any unpaid receivables in SLA LLC after the enforcement of the collateral and personal guarantees by SLA LLC. 5. MgmtCo’s Equity interest in SLA LLC The amount represents SLA LLC’s net assets attributable to MgmtCo (before deduction of receivables), which is included in “Third-party interests in SVF” in the condensed interim consolidated statement of financial position. 6. Management fees, performance-linked management fees, and performance fees to be charged to MgmtCo The terms of the management fees, performance-linked management fees, and performance fees to be charged to MgmtCo are the same as those to be charged to the Company as an Equity investor in SLA LLC. 7. Net balance at period end Net balance at period end is the balance of receivables held by SLA LLC less MgmtCo’s Equity interest in SLA LLC. SoftBank Group Corp.

Accountant's Responsibility for the Review of the Condensed Interim Consolidated Financial Statements Our objective is to issue an accountant's report that includes our conclusion. As part of a review in accordance with interim review standards generally accepted in Japan, we exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the review. We also: • Make inquiries, primarily of management and persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and apply analytical and other interim review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in Japan. • Conclude whether nothing has come to our attention, based on the evidence obtained, related to going concern that causes us to believe that the condensed interim consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with Article 5-2 of the Tokyo Stock Exchange's standards for the preparation of quarterly financial statements, omitting certain disclosures under Article 5-5 of the Tokyo Stock Exchange's standards for the preparation of quarterly financial statements, if we conclude that a material uncertainty exists related to events or conditions that may cast significant doubt on the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. If we conclude that a material uncertainty exists, we are required to draw attention in our accountant's report to the related disclosures in the condensed interim consolidated financial statements or, if such disclosures are inadequate, to modify our conclusion. Our conclusions are based on the evidence obtained up to the date of our accountant's report. However, future events or conditions may cause the Company to cease to continue as a going concern. • Evaluate whether nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the overall presentation and disclosures of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements are not prepared in accordance with Article 5-2 of the Tokyo Stock Exchange's standards for the preparation of quarterly financial statements, omitting certain disclosures under Article 5-5 of the Tokyo Stock Exchange's standards for the preparation of quarterly financial statements. • Obtain evidence regarding the financial information of the entities or business units within the Company as a basis for forming a conclusion on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements. We are responsible for the direction, supervision and review of the interim review of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements. We remain solely responsible for our conclusion.
